Gerald Massey: Poet, Prophet and Mystic is a biography of the life and work of Gerald Massey, a 19th-century British poet, writer, and social reformer. Written by B. O. Flower, the book explores Massey's early life, his struggles with poverty and illiteracy, and his eventual rise to become one of the most important figures of his time.The book delves into Massey's poetry, which was praised for its lyrical beauty and social commentary, and his work as a lecturer and social reformer, advocating for workers' rights and the abolition of slavery. It also explores Massey's interest in mysticism and the occult, which led him to write extensively on ancient Egyptian religion and mythology.Through Flower's detailed research and analysis, readers are given a comprehensive understanding of Massey's life and work, as well as the social and political climate in which he lived. The book is a tribute to Massey's legacy as a poet, prophet, and mystic, and a testament to his enduring impact on British literature and social reform.1895. This little book briefly discusses the life and work of one of England's poets of the people, who deserves far more from the hands of those who love justice, freedom and truth than he has received. The author purposely quoted freely from the writings of Mr. Massey because in order to know the true self or the spiritual ego of an individual, we must see his soul in action, see him battling with injustice or error, for then is revealed the spirit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
